L'Arc~en~Ciel Launches New World Tour

Via Otaku Reviewers NOVEMBER 30, 2011

Yes it's true and the legendary Japanese rock band L'Arc~en~Ciel has just launched a new world tour! On November 29th they kicked off the tour with a sold-out 20th anniversary concert at Ajinomoto Stadium. That show was broadcast via tape-delay at Empire 25 in New York City. According to RPGHERO:

It was basically like I won the experience of sneaking into a city movie theatre... But the concert film was pretty cool. It wasn't truly live, it was more like it was filmed on the 29th in Japan and shown in the USA on the 29th. So it's almost like it was live right? It took place at technically the same time and day.

Here is a video of the concert footage of L'Arc-en-Ciel performing Ready Steady Go from the other night:



And here is the band performing their smash hit Driver's High live at the Yoyogi Daiichi Taiikukan during the last night of their week-long "Shibuya Seven Days 2003" concerts:

1965 David Bowie Home Video

Mr. T @ The 3Yen just sent in this remarkable home video of David Bowie and members of The Lower Third in 1965:




Original source: Mrs Tsk *

”The scene, brief and looped, has the elusive appeal of a new Yeti or Bigfoot reel. Joe Salama, who posted the fragment, says: “This exceptional cine footage was taken by my late father on a trip up to the West End of London totally unaware that David Bowie was the young dude that smiles graciously at the camera.”

"Well, I thought I could do better than that, and before long I’d googled enough to publish with some confidence the true facts of this remarkable document. Somebody in the comments points out that it’s more likely to be 1966 or 1965. I’m able to confirm that this is spring 1965."

"I also found this Lower Third handbill, drawn by Bowie himself in 1965, showing him with the same hairstyle and the same high rounded shirt collar you see in the film."
